Variants
Gluten-Free Baked Eggplant Parmesan: Use gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed gluten-free crackers to make this dish suitable for those avoiding gluten.
Vegan Baked Eggplant Parmesan: Use vegan breadcrumbs, dairy-free mozzarella, and skip the egg wash, using a plant-based milk to coat the eggplant instead.
Spicy Baked Eggplant Parmesan: Add crushed red pepper flakes to the breadcrumb mixture for a spicy kick.
Baked Eggplant Parmesan with Pesto: Drizzle a bit of basil pesto on top of the sauce before baking for an herby twist.
